Hello,
Does anyone know how to print an €-sign into a PDF, using the PDFBox-library?
I use the normal way of writing into a pdf with this code:
PDPage page = this.getPage(pagenr);
PDPageContentStream stream;
try {
stream = new PDPageContentStream(this.document, page, true, false);
stream.setFont(PDType1Font.HELVETICA, 10);
stream.setNonStrokingColor(Color.black);
stream.beginText();
stream.moveTextPositionByAmount(5, 7);
stream.drawString("€");
stream.endText();
stream.close();
}
catch(IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
But then some other signs appears (look in the attachment).
This also happens when I use the Unicode “\u20AC” instead of “€”.
So, does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks a lot!
